Teck Kee Buns II

Went back to my favorite bun place the other day! Yum yum!


You know, I was trying hard to look for their signboard so that I can take a photo of it, I was unable to do so! Hahaha! Hmmmmm. So, I took this instead. (But the man told me that the signboard is outside the building after I complained to him. So, look out for the signboard outside the building then. Hehs.)

Look at their buns! This is so Singaporean! Hehs. I loveee it!


It's actually my first time visiting the shop, so I was so excited when I saw the old looking kitchen of theirs. I have a fetish for old shops you see.


And they have this mirror that I cannot fathom the use of. To, expand the visual space of the shop? Haha. No idea. But well, it gave us a chance to look at our hair/camwhore while waiting for our orders though.


So, since we are back with a growling stomach (due to not eating much the whole day), we grabbed a bun each (ok, I grabbed 2). Haha. Ate them right on the spot (well, almost!).


As usual, the buns were heavenly to me, but 'it's-just-another-bun' to the man. Haha. You seriously don't see our Lotus going after all the buns we buy! But she remembered clearly that this place sells nice buns. The moment we alight from the bus, she told us to buy the buns immediately! And after finishing the big pork bun, she was still yearning for more. Well, so I have no choice but to share my lotus bun with her. Haha. (We love flour related products. Hahaha!)


Look at the Lotus paste. Yum yum. I love the fact that it's not too sweet and not too not sweet for me (?). Hahahahaha!

Another look at my lotus bun under different lighting. Haha.


Ok, I guess I had reviewed about a few buns the other time. I still want to erm, show you some more buns photos. Haha. (You know, my camera just came back from coma, so, I have to snap snap snap and snap!)

Char siew bun
Red bean paste bun

Insides of the red bean paste bun
I was trying so hard to decided which is my favouritest bun. I simply could not do it.

Char siew bun is nice because of the meat inside. But I felt that the bun skin is nicer for the lotus paste and the red bean paste. But the lotus paste and the red bean paste are pastes, so they should not be compared with the meat. (Well, I like all 3 you see.)

So, since it's not too big and not too expensive, when my mama asked me what I would like to have, I told her I want all 3 of them. Hahahahaha! =D

Till the next time I eat them again! WooOooHoooO!

Teck Kee Buns

Apparently, this shop had been around for very very long because my parents were like "A! Teck Kee buns!" when we were around there. Haha. So, they went to buy some buns while I was waiting to pay for the photos.

(I apologize for the super lousy photos. My camera needs to enter ICU already. =( )

I find this really cute leh. Haha.
It's quite interesting right? I mean, how many shops actually have their brand on the paper? And, isn't that logo super cute? Haha. Never expect something terribly nice from a skinny chef. Hahaha. I can see that the bun is going to pretty delicious. LOL!

Char siew bao
The char siew bun was the first one I tasted. Piping hot from the shop. Wah! It took my heart away immediately. Hehs. I've always been a fan of char siew buns and I personally love the skin much much more than I love the meat. LOL! But I think both the skin and the meat tasted equally nice! The meat was not too sweet and not too 'not sweet'. There's substance in the meat! And oh, the skin. It took my heart away. Haha. Right texture, right hardness. I have no idea why but I can taste the minute difference in the hardness/softness of bread/buns. Lol. It cannot be too soft and of course it cannot be too hard. This skin passed my criteria of the right softness. Hehs. YUMS!

Red bean paste bun
Red bean paste
Yums. Same great skin and the red bean paste was good too!

Big chicken bun

Wah. The chicken. Wah. Slurps. Hehs. Woah. LOL! And I ate it when it was really super hot! Juicy juciy chicken! But I'm upset because I wish that the skin is a little thicker. Haha.

I found egg inside! Hehs.
I didn't get to try the lotus paste which is one of my favourite bun. Another time!


I've just labeled this place as the place that sells my favourite bun in Singapore. Haha. Not every shop is able to be labeled this ok?! Hahaha. Even Lotus also like the bun! She can finish A LOT!! Hahaha.


My mama had already placed ordered with me because I'll be going back that place 2 more times in near future. Haha. I cannot wait to buy them too! Hohohohohoho! I'm so willing to sacrifice my fiber rich breakfast for these yummy buns. Hahaha.


And oh, I have no idea how much it cost because I was not the one who bought them in the first place. Hehs. And my parents don't remember the price too. I shall find it out soon enough!
